A Trip To Ikea On Lori's Birthday

Lori and I took another trip to Ikea on her birthday last week.
I love wandering through and checking everything out!
Like the gorgeous fabrics in the first two photos, below:

And kitchen wares:

There were some toys I wanted - I adore this kitchen back drop:

And the living room - I wish I had gotten more pictures of the furniture.
(Lori ended up going back and getting these for her granddaughter's birthday - I might have to go back, too...)

We had a nice lunch there, too.
Mine was salmon; it was fabulous:

I just now realized that I didn't take any pictures of what we bought that day.
Lori needed some stuff for her new place, since she just recently moved again.
We're hoping she stays put for a while!
I was happy to get to spend the day with her on her birthday. We were kind of worn out, but we had a great time.

Looks like it was fun! I love that little dollhouse, kind of like a Barbie house and the Mary Engelbreit houses all mixed up into one. Glad your salmon was good, I have to say the picture kind of looked like it was plastic food made to go in the doll house. Sorry, but that sauce! OMG. Would like to see what you bought some day.

About The Gold Country Girls:

We are three sisters who grew up in the foothills of the Sierra Nevada mountains in California, in the area known as the Gold Country, and the Mother Lode. My name is Heidi, and I began this blog in September of 2007 with the hope that my sisters would join in somewhere along the way. I'm happy to say that they do, indeed contribute!On this blog, you will find that I write a lot about thrift store shopping - one of my favorite pastimes! I absolutely LOVE scoring a great deal on vintage items. I am a collector (of FAR too many things!), and I also have a booth in Jamestown, California where I sell vintage and antique collectibles and housewares, clothing, etc. We also write about memories, family, friends, sewing, local history in the Gold Country area and beyond, crafting, cooking, our favorite places to go (for me, that's Disneyland!), music, entertainment - pretty much anything that strikes our fancy! Maybe something we have to say, show, or tell will strike a chord within you, or spark a memory. We hope so, and we LOVE comments, so please do share your thoughts. And come along with us on our journey.....
